These instructions are written for Microsoft Windows
95. The procedure outlined below is analogous for Macintosh and UNIX systems.

Although it is possible to access the CD-ROM directly, for fast loading
you may wish to transfer the CD-ROM to your local hard drive. Before transferring
the files to your local hard drive, we recommend that you browse the site
and check the performance of your CD-ROM drive by clicking HERE.
If you are satisfied with the time required to load the pages, then you
do not need to transfer the files on the CD-ROM to your hard drive. If you
elect to perform this optional procedure, you will need 600 MB of free disk
space. We recommend that you first check your free disk space by right clicking
on the hard drive icon and selecting properties.

If you have sufficient free disk space, then drag the MPF folder to
your local hard drive which in this example is the C: drive.

The files will transfer to your local hard drive over a period
of 10-20 minutes.

Next use any web browser that supports 32 character file names, such
as Netscape 3.0 or greater to access the main index.html file.

If you have copied the CD-ROM to your local hard drive, then
select the MPF folder and open the index.html file.

The main entry page will appear. You are now accessing the files directly
off your fast hard drive! Just click on the links as you normally would
while browsing the Pathfinder web site. Everything will load with lightning
speed since no Internet connection is required. ( This is not true for the
external links, click HERE for an explanation.
)

However if you don't have 600 MB of free disk space, then just click
HERE and you can access the CD-ROM as fast as your
CD-ROM drive can serve the files. ( Please note that CD-ROM drives are always
slower than hard drives, but usually faster than Internet connections. )
